November 9th

Today, Sarah is 19! Her last year as a teenager! A chapter of life is coming to a close, and I am glad to have shared so many of our preparatory years together. From little girls playing "mother", to assisting real mothers in their daily tasks, to acquiring skills in home economics, to finishing high-school, to teaching piano, to sermon listening, to book clubbing, to driving!, to our summer visits, weekly phone calls, and emails, and everything else we were busy about, having a like-minded friend to share in the growing is a gift from God. Whether we were in the kitchen together cooking lemony goodness, or talking about the issues, we've enjoyed the unity that we have as believers. One thing that I really admire in Sarah is her sunny disposition. She always strives to look on the bright side and she is constantly about serving others joyfully and cheerfully. I want to be like her when I grow up! :) If you are thankful for Sarah and the gifts God has given her, take some time today and let her know!

Happy Birthday Sarah!
